Fate of Ingested Histamine in Sheep

The Fate of Ingested Water

Except in some of the lower orders, virtual constancy of the volume of body water is a prerequisite for the normal function and indeed the survival of the organism. In terrestrial animals, particularly, adaptive mechanisms provide for physiological regulation of the amounts of water which leave and enter the body. Although solid foods provide a considerable quantity of pre-formed water to the b...

the effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation

in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.

The fate of ingested creatinine in the rat.

dilute solutions, the initial pipetting oflarge volumes on to chromatograms may lead to the accumulation of enough salts seriously to disturb band formation and movement. For creatin.ine detection under these circumstances, preliminary adsorption on to Lloyd's reagent (Behre & Benedict, 1922) is suggested. The methods described have not been extended beyond the qualitative detection of creatine...

Fate of Ingested Clostridium difficile Spores in Mice

Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is a leading cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea, a major nosocomial complication. The infective form of C. difficile is the spore, a dormant and resistant structure that forms under stress. Although spore germination is the first committed step in CDI onset, the temporal and spatial distribution of ingested C. difficile spores is not clearly understood...
